Sorry I don't have any pics.   :goldtooth:

Love my jones cap. Have had it 30 years I still wear it every season. I call it my "lucky hat" but it's not..Lol I did shoot a small buck with it this day though.

I haven't seen the Jones or the Pork Pie in the stores for a long time.

I have the reversable camo on one side, orange on the other style. I used to see them everywhere for sale but now not so much. It's surprising cause I live in a state where you often need to display orange while moving during overlapping seasons.

My favorite.  I have an old one, and one from Cabela's about two yrs. old.  I wear them backwards, as I don't like the hard brim in front.  Pulled down over forehead, with a half face mask, my face is very well concealed.  Plus, there is still enough brim in the front to shield the sun.

It seems very similar to the Two Tracks Coups Cap.  Can't beat a Coups Cap.

Check out "Drake waterfowl Clothing." They have some Jones caps also some baseball caps and jackets in their old school camo pattern.

I have an old Winona cap I roll at the rear to form a Pseudo-Jones.

Someone on here is going to need more than a lucky hat when he falls out of that damn tree because he didn't wear a fall restraint..Hunt smart!

I'd like to have one too in a fabric that would be good for warmer weather like I have here in Texas.

I looked for one last year for hours and couldn't find anything even close.  LL Bean used to sell them in a couple different colors and I have a Grey one.  It's for COLD weather though and it certainly works.

I'd be open to selling it or trading it towards a Big Jim's bow Quiver.  It's either a large or XL, likely a Large.  PM me if you want me to dig it out and send you a pic.

If I could find one, I'd wear one. My old one is laying on the bottom of Sowden lake Ont. along with 6 or 8 bowhunter pins. Blew off my head in '81 and sunk like a rock !

I'd like to second a couple of posts; the first being use of a safety harness.

Secondly, I've been wanting to get one of Chuck Deschler's Coups caps in wool. I really like wool. In the meantime, I picked up one of his fleece caps. I wore it up at Graying bow camp in 20 degree weather and found it warm, extremely light and flexible and could not have asked for more. Looks a lot like the Jones cap.
